Football Feast, Starting From the Acquisition of European Clubs

   Chapter 91

After making up his mind, Chen Ran called Louis back again.

   "What's wrong? What's the matter?"

   Little Fatty asked with a puzzled look.

   "On Robben's side, just try to ask. If Eindhoven's asking price is too outrageous, you just give up, and then turn to the Frenchman Evra who plays for Monaco."

   "Evra? Okay. Chen, it seems that this time your signings are focused on the wing."

"That's right. Crystal Palace has a lack of rotation players on the wing. This loophole must be filled in the summer transfer period. Next season will be playing in the Premier League. There are strong teams everywhere. This is not comparable to those in the Championship. You have to be prepared for difficulties.”

   "Understood, I'll do it now."

   As expected by Chen Ran, with the existence of the local tyrant Chelsea, PSV Eindhoven came up with a big opening and set a price of 25 million euros for Robben.

   You must know that Robben is just 20 years old now. He has only performed well in the Eredivisie and has not yet been tested by the English league.

   Now in 2004, the price of 25 million euros really took Crystal Palace as a big deal.

   Chen Ran immediately ordered him to stop contact with Eindhoven after getting the news from Louis, and instead attacked Evra with all his strength.

   On the other side, the agent of Luis and Alves got on the line smoothly.

  Although the little fat man has now run away from home to work alone, who in the circle does not know that his father is the big guy Juan Ferger?

  If you don’t look at the face of the monk and look at the face of the Buddha, at least no one will refuse to meet and chat with the little fat man.

   Being able to meet, naturally gave Louis the opportunity to show his skills.

  Chen Ran also gave Little Fatty sufficient authorization, so Luiz promised at the beginning that if Alves is willing to join Crystal Palace, his annual salary will be doubled.

   If you include various bonuses, Alves’ annual income can reach up to 2.5 times what he is now.

   Of course, if Alves can be persuaded to transfer, he will also get a lot of benefits as an agent.

  Little Fatty used his sociable talent, used a three-inch tongue and an oversized carrot to get Alves' agent as he wished.

  The current Sevilla is not the king of the Europa League.

   They are just an ordinary mid-level La Liga team, and they have never won the UEFA Cup.

  The last significant championship, but also to trace back to the 1948 Spanish King's Cup champion.

  Crystal Palace, as a new player in the Premier League, has a gap with Sevilla, but it is not big, and it can be made up for with money.

   After receiving the news from the agent, Alves was also a little moved.

   With Barcelona and Real Madrid, Sevilla has no hope of winning the league.

  Since the championship is hopeless, let’s make more money.

  So, Alves agreed to join Crystal Palace, but he also put forward the requirement to ensure his main position.

   This is not something that Fatty can make a decision, and he immediately reported Alves' conditions to Chen Ran.

   "Main position?"

   Chen Ran almost laughed when he heard the news.

   As the main right back of Barcelona at his peak, he is so unconfident now?

   Also, Alves, who just turned 21 at this time, is far from reaching his later heights.

   Isn't this a good time to do it yourself?

  Thinking of this, Chen Ran decided to show his sincerity, go to Seville in person, and have a good chat with Alves.

When    first met Alves, perhaps it was Chen Ran's identity that brought him a lot of pressure, and the young man seemed a little nervous.

   "Relax, Dani, I'm only in my twenties, not much older than you."

  Chen Ran smiled and shook Alves' hand to reassure him.

   "But you're already a club owner."

   "What about the boss? No, he has two eyes and one mouth, just like ordinary people."

   Chen Ran's kind and easy-going attitude made Alves gradually relax.

  This is completely different from the club owner he has met before, and it also makes him have some good feelings for the young Crystal Palace owner whom he first met.

  Chen Ran still chose the restaurant as the meeting place, because he found that whether it is abroad or at home, the success rate of talking about things at the dinner table is higher.

   "Dani, you should also know the purpose of my visit today. Louis told me your request, and I want to say that you are thinking too much."

   After taking a sip of wine, Chen Ran continued to flicker while looking at Alves' puzzled eyes.

   "There are twenty teams in the Premier League, and there are thirty-eight league games in each season."

   "And we Crystal Palace have already qualified for the UEFA Cup next season, plus the FA Cup and League Cup, it is conservatively estimated that we will play more than 50 games in one season."

   "Crystal Palace now has only two players on the right, Ribery, who plays right midfielder, and Maicon, who plays right back. Even if you count you, there are only three people."

   "Three people rotate in two positions, and you have to play more than 50 games in a season. It's a common thing to play double games in a week. Are you still worried about not being able to play? I'm afraid you will be tired by then."

  Chen Ran cut the steak slowly, while explaining to Alves, and finally gave Alves a sympathetic look.

  Alves was a little embarrassed to see Chen Ran, hehe smiled and touched the back of his head, then came to the manager and asked in a low voice:

   "Is everything he said true?"

   "It's all true."

   The agent nodded affirmatively, everything was working together perfectly.

   "Boss, then I have no problem. As long as you can negotiate the transfer fee with the Sevilla club, I will join Crystal Palace."

After    got Alves, under the arrangement of Luis, Chen Ran personally visited the Sevilla club again.

   For Sevilla, who have no hope of winning the championship and worry about relegation, buying and selling players to make money is one of their important businesses.

   Alves is not for sale. The Sevilla club welcomes Chen Ran's arrival.

After some bargaining, Chen Ran finally successfully won the ownership of Alves for 6 million euros.

   Two years ago, Sevilla brought in Alves from Brazil for only 600,000 euros.

   It took two years and changed hands ten times, making huge profits!

   Therefore, the Sevilla club is very satisfied with this transaction, and their club president Del Nido also specially hosted a banquet to entertain Chen Ran and his party.

  Chen Ran is of course also very happy, because he knows what kind of height Alves' worth will reach in the future.

  6 million euros, drizzle.

   For the same transaction, both the buyer and the seller think they have made a profit.

   The atmosphere of the banquet, it is naturally the guests and the host.

   When he was about to say goodbye, Del Nido held Chen Ran's hand tightly, promising that if there were any good players in the future, he would definitely notify Crystal Palace as soon as possible.
